Last night's showing of "Roy Orbison and Friends" on KCET — the concert was recorded live at the Cocoanut Grove in 1988 — prompted this anguished email from an LA Observed reader who shall remain nameless:
Jesus, does KCET have to run that Roy Orbison program EVERY THREE MONTHS?!He was an awesome dude, and it's a wonderful program--but, Christ!--EVERY pledge drive?! (Have you noticed--no lie--how they're every three months now?)
Maybe you could implore L.A. to stop watching (and pledging during) that program--and KCET would be forced to beat some other program to death!
Thanks for letting me vent.
He's not the only one who was thinking it.

The "Right of Way" rewrite is underway. Collaborator Marvin Wolf has already refined the project down to two documents, including a 25-page treatment, while finding time to knock out a novel or two on the side.
